Glen Powell shares Tom Cruise’s advice on how not to die

Glen Powell has got major advice from Hollywood’s daring stunt actor, Tom Cruise.

On Friday, November 7, Powell shared the advice he got from the Mission: Impossible franchise star during his appearance on The Graham Norton Show.

While doing a stunt for his new movie The Running Man, Powell recalled that he had “to abseil down eight storeys of a building in freezing conditions, half-naked and wearing a harness which cinched me – believe me, nothing looked good.”

He said he found out after shooting that there was one guy on set whose entire job was just to make sure he didn’t kick through a window during a scene.

That guy had to sit in an awkward position, which meant he was basically looking up Powell’s skirt the whole time.

However, following his Top Gun: Maverick co-star’s advice, Powell explained, “Tom rang me to give me the lowdown and what I thought would be a ten-minute call lasted two and a half hours – he basically told me how not to die!”

“He also gave me running lessons,” Powell added. “He said, ‘You should film yourself running because you don’t look as cool as you think you do.’ He was so right!”
